Bradford Bulls have signed full-back Caleb Aekins on a one-year deal ahead of next season.

The 27-year-old has experience of both the NRL and the northern hemisphere, having made his debut for Penrith Panthers in 2018 as well as featuring for Canberra Raiders.

He went on to join Leigh in 2022, helping them win promotion to Super League that season, while he has spent the past three campaigns with Featherstone Rovers.

"I am really happy to be joining the Bulls and I'm grateful for the opportunity," he said.

"Obviously it is a very exciting time for everyone involved to be back in Super League and I can't wait to be a part of such a special chapter in the history of this great club.

"I'm looking forward to meeting my team-mates and the fans, from my games against Bradford I know how passionate they are."
